Tafel Slopes and Potential Dependence of Coverage by Intermediates

Tafel Slopes and Potential Dependence of Coverage by Intermediates [Pg.47]

We have indicated above that for a simple electron-transfer reaction, not involving a chemisorbed intermediate, or for such a step in a more complex process where the coverage, 9, by intermediates is small (say, 1%, when the discharge step producing the intermediate is rate controlling) the Tafel slope dVjd ni is simply [Pg.47]

Br0nsted factor for the effect of electrode potential on the Fermi level of electrons, causing change of AG with V (see p. 6). [Pg.47]

When a prior discharge step producing the adsorbed intermediate, for example, H in the HER, can be considered in quasi-equilibrium when the desorption step is rate controlling (an experimentally encountered situation at a number of metals), 6 is expressed by an electrochemical Langmuir-type adsorption relation  [Pg.48]

It is seen, however, that for strong polarization conditions, KC,e p(VFIRT) can become comparable with or much greater than 1, so that 0 - 1, and then ft = RT/pF, so that distinction of rate control by the value of ft can no longer be made. However, under these conditions, 0 then being large, some other methods (e.g., potential-relaxation and/or impedance measurements and analysis) are then applicable (see Section VI). [Pg.48]
